Hello! brand new member. I am a very novice enthusiast. Got my curiosity from my dad. We used to walk around picking up rocks looking for points, fossils etc. Just within the last year or so I found two specimens I think are interesting. I thought I might post images here and get an opinion or two. Both have a density of around 4. The smaller one a little less than the bigger one. Both are attracted to a rare earth magnet, again, the smaller less so. Just barely in fact. I haven't got a good streak plate so no info there. Cut some windows to look inside. The little guy gets really interesting there. Pics aren't the best, but adequate I think. The small one was in some washed river gravel in some landscaping. The bigger one was found near a railroad track and may have gotten there in a load of fill. Anyhows, an opinions would be appreciated.
